Chris and FL are both Korean, so even if Americans wouldn't have batted an eye at FL getting pregnant and being unmarried, FL may have been embarrassed about it and Chris knows how to push FL's buttons.

No, two different things. But now that you mention it? Hum?

Nah. That would be tooooo much of a coincidence.

In episode 5, it's mentioned that FL took a year off from Greip. Do you think she got pregnant and had a baby?

And when Dan Ho says his child's mother is far away, I'm assuming they're not married, but she's not dead. Otherwise I'd expect him to be a bit choked up about mentioning her.

I'm at the end of episode 6, and I have a thought.

So, where do you think ML's father is all night long? He has a day shift at the hospital, but never comes home until the morning? Does he have a mistress and that's why ML's mom is so frosty to him? Or does Dad stay away all night because Mom no longer likes him? She definitely wants to be sent overseas and can't stand being home at all.

I don't know. Mom wants Mo-eun out of the house, and Mom already really likes Dan Ho, so . . .

And then we also get a "One Spring Night" reference with the 2nd ML single dad.

The "Something in the Rain" reference made me giggle.

I act like an adult with everyone, UNTIL I go home and I'm around my parents and brother and sister. I immediately regress to being 8 years old. I think there's a bit of that going on. They've known each other since they were kids, so they tend to regress back to acting like kids when they are around each other.

Episode 4. I'm really enjoying this. Choi Seung Hyo's annoying partner isn't so useless after all. I'm starting to like him.

Kind of a pun that I'm bummed out that we didn't get to see his bum, well, more of his legs really.

Bummer. They did that on purpose.

Episode 3. NO SPEEDOS! We were robbed.

I thought swim pants were banned for competition by FINA.

Very true. Thank you.

Thank you. That makes sense.

I'm up to episode 2.

I don't understand the Mom's reaction to the FL moving home. But I also don't understand the FL's actions, either.

1. If I was being bullied at work, and my fiance' cheated on me, I'd quit and move home, too. BUT, I'd also tell everyone. I'd throw my fiance' under the bus so fast that the skid marks in his underpants would be actual tire marks.

2. If I was the Mom, I would be comforting my daughter. If she quit her job, dumped her fiance', and moved halfway around the world to come home, my smart daughter must have a very good reason. I should be on her side comforting her, not hitting her. I'd be on a plane hitting the ex-fiance'.

So, are these a Korean thing?
Or are these a K-drama trope just for the plot, because I've seen these happen in other K-dramas?

I thought Yun Woo was the son from the family who raised Man-Wol after finding her in the forest. Yun Woo and Man-Wol are raised as brother and sister.

Yun Woo [Past] |is Detective Park Young Soo [Present]. So the Detective is the reincarnation of Yun Woo.

So in Chan-Sung's final dream about Man-Wol, it implies that Chan-Sung the same little boy who found Man-Wol as a child? That would make Chan-Sung the reincarnation of Yun Woo, but he's not. So how is that the moment where Chan-Sung met Man-Wol in the past? It makes no sense.

I've just rewatched Hotel Del Luna, and I have a question about the finale, so I'll put my question behind a spoiler.

The first time I watched it, I didn't think it was inevitable, either. It was only after watching it and thinking about, that it made sense. Also, it's not how most K-dramas usually do a romance.

Did they ever make dramas like this?

This was the very first K-drama I watched. I've watched many K-dramas since, both older ones and newer ones, and this drama is totally unique.
